UML remote GUI problems
I am a final year student taking a degree in Computing at Dublin Institute of Technology - Ireland. In my final year project I am doing a project using User Mode Linux. My project has set out to research the capabilities of User Mode Linux in a teaching environment. So far I have set up a server and now have users logging on from a terminal. They use a COW file so as not to corrupt the file system. Next I want to investigate and test the capabilities of User Mode Linux over a network using a Graphical User Interface. The problem that I am having is that I am finding it difficult to set up the GUI system. I was wondering if anybody could give me some pointers in the right direction or could tell me of a tutorial on how to set it up. I have already looked at the user mode Linux
website on sourceforge but have been unable to successfully complete the GUI instructions.
I am running Red Hat Linux 9 2.4.20-8
User mode Linux Patch 2.4.27-1
Remote Terminal Putty
Regards
Greg

Without knowing which are your difficulties? It's difficult.

What's the problem?
You must install Xnest inside your guest system... it will then be able to forward connection to another X system (on which you have to authorize TCP connections from the UML system). Then it should work, more or less.

On windows? well, there are also Xservers on Windows (the cygwin one for instance)...
